DVDs

Since there was nothing interesting at the movies, we decided to rent a few DVDs and videos yesterday. So far we've watched 28 Days, which was better than we both expected, and The Storm Riders, which had a weak story line but featured an interesting blend of martial arts and cool special effects.

Official preliminary report of Air France Concorde Crash. "During the take-off run the front right tyre of the left main landing gear was destroyed between V1 and VR, very probably because it ran over a piece of metal. The destruction of the tyre caused damage, either directly or indirectly, to the aircraft structure and systems, leading to the crash less than one minute and thirty seconds after the destruction of the tyre."
